Y.E.S. (Your Essential Service) Program
 

Active parental involvement is vital to Rock Springs Christian Academy’s success, and the Y.E.S. Program has been established by our school board to encourage every family to participate in building a thriving school community.

Program Requirements:

  • Each family is required to complete 24 hours of volunteer service per year.
  • Single-parent families are required to complete 12 hours per year.
  • At least half of these hours must be completed through participation in school fundraisers to support our programs and special events.
  • A fee of $20 per hour will be charged for any unfulfilled hours at the end of the year.

Your service helps make many of our programs and events possible and directly benefits our students. We value your time and appreciate your dedication to our school community.

 

Volunteer Opportunities:
There are many ways to earn Y.E.S. hours throughout the year, including helping with school events, assisting teachers, supporting athletics, or serving at fundraisers. Watch for announcements about opportunities in newsletters and emails, or contact the school office for current needs.

 

Y.E.S. Hour Opportunity Ideas
Looking for ways to fulfill your Y.E.S. hours? Here are some common opportunities to get involved:

  • Work the gate or sell concessions at athletic events (volleyball, football, basketball, wrestling, baseball)
  • Assist the PTF as needed and attend PTF meetings
  • Help set up for school dances, like Homecoming or the Daddy-Daughter Dance
  • Support RSCA by purchasing items for the library book drives
  • Sell fundraiser items or raffle tickets (check emails for details—e.g., selling 10 tickets could equal 1 Y.E.S. hour)
  • Work at or contribute items to the annual auction
  • Volunteer for or contribute to any PTF fundraisers
  • Help teachers in the classroom (e.g., providing one-on-one assistance to students)

  • Assist teachers in creating baskets or grade-level projects for the auction (these hours count as fundraising hours

     

Additional Guidelines for Y.E.S. Hours

  • Hours do not carry over from year to year; they must be completed within the school year they are intended for.
  • Y.E.S. hours may not be shared between families.
  • Volunteering for the church and Annual Fund donations do not count toward Y.E.S. hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I log my Y.E.S. hours?

Families are responsible for keeping track of their Y.E.S. volunteer hours. Please complete the attached Y.E.S. Hour Tracking Form and submit it to Deanna Ballew in the Elementary front office by May 1, 2026, or anytime during the school year once your hours are complete.

Did the teacher inform you that I supplied items or served to fulfill my Y.E.S. hours?

No, teachers do not submit or track Y.E.S. hour contributions.

I attended a school field trip but was not specifically asked to chaperone. Can I receive Y.E.S. hours for that?

No. To earn Y.E.S. hours for a field trip, you must be personally invited to chaperone by the teacher in advance. Please confirm this with the teacher before attending the trip.

Can volunteer work I do outside of school count toward my Y.E.S. hours?

Unfortunately, no. While we truly appreciate and celebrate your servant’s heart, only volunteer hours completed through RSCA school events and programs qualify for Y.E.S. hours.

I donated an item to the RSCA Auction valued at $40, but it sold for $200. How many Y.E.S. hours will I receive—2 or 10?

You will receive Y.E.S. hours only based on the item's value at the time of donation.

If you have any questions about the YES Hours Program, please contact Deanna Ballew at dballew@rsca.info.
